Exactly and perhaps initially she got attention from loved ones or friends etc and held onto the sick act. And now her whole life and role in life is to be "sick" she has no hobbies, no friends, doesn't take any classes or go to any community centres who do ladies groups, or art classes, etc (there are these community centres dotted around every area)
She might not even realise that she's causing herself all this and is just stuck in a rut and needs to be pulled out and needs to take her life back. I mean she doesn't even go to proper therapy once a week with a proper psychologist. Like surely with the way she portrays her horrible childhood the first thing she would do with her money is get some proper private psychologist and psychiatrist. Might help her depression and her need for malingering and poor attitude. If there's any money left I wish she would sort her head out. Even for baby bears sake. If my mother treated me the way she treats baby I would be so sad and have such a bad self image. She's always talking about her bum and airing her private issues on YouTube. What mother would do that? She clearly needs help and not for her pretend fibro. Loose some weight and eat right that's the first thing any Dr would tell her.
Sorry for the long post but it had to be said
